This bloom looks similar to those on a Mamosa tree and you're right they are difficult so photograph, Dottie. This is nice and I love the colors. #176578

Hi Everyone and thanks for your comments. I order this little tree from a FL Nursery this spring..It was in a 3gal. container..I keep it on the patio out of the heat and it's is now about 21/2 ft. tall. When it is full of those little red blosssoms it's awesome..looks like little red glows all over it...!! Thanks again everyone....!!!! #176582

Very good job shooting it, I'd say! I don't think I ever saw one, but they are similar to a Mimosa, so maybe a relative?? #176770

Charlene, Evy, birdie, Carolyn, Thanks all for your wonderful comments..Carolyn the more I think about it this little tree may be part of the Mimosa family because the leaves close at night...It is a beautiful speciman when there are a lot of blooms.. Thanks again for all your wonderful comments!! #176791
